Meegs began in the \u003cb\u003efall of 1900\u003c\/b\u003e, when her first short pieces appeared in English newspapers. By this time, the intrepid young woman, in her guise as Emmie Reese, had already become a featured player in a series of mysteries, some of which would be recounted in her own inimitable voice. It is her subtle transformation from fictional New Woman to postmodern authorial surrogate which this important volume so scrupulously documents.\u003cp\u003eHere you will find not only the three Emmie Reese Mystery short stories-\u003ci\u003eThe Birth of M.E.
